Abstract:
Provided is a method for obtaining a cooking vessel comprising the following steps: producing a container having an aluminium outer face and an inner face, carrying out hard anodization of at least the outer face of the container. At least one colouring step is carried out on the anodized outer face following hard anodization, said colouring step employing at least one water-soluble anthraquinone organic dye. Also provided is a culinary article or an electric cooking appliance comprising a cooking vessel obtained by the above method.
Abstract:
Cookware with built-in drains allows liquid to drain out without tipping the pan. The drain is structured so as not to leak or interfere with the cookware's thermal properties. Each pan provides a close fitting strainer which fits snugly within the pan. The strainer provides a plurality of apertures in its bottom surface which may be opened and closed by the user. One or more clamps may be used to lift the strainer and food out of the pan, and drain excess fluid into the pan by opening the apertures.
Abstract:
Cookware formed from carbon steel having a handle comprising two tangs cut from a peripheral flange surrounding a formed body of the cookware, such as a fry pan, wherein end portions of the tangs are integral with the formed body, the tangs being bent to form the handle configuration.
Abstract:
Provided is a method for determining a performance index of a cooking utensil (1a, 1b, 11) for a predetermined cooking temperature with, the aim of assessing nutritional gain, said cooking utensil comprising a bottom (2a, 2b, 10) having a cooking surface (3a, 3b, 10a). The method comprises: a) bringing the cooking surface (3a, 3b, 10a) to said predetermined cooking temperature by using heating means (4), the heating of the surface resulting in a deformation of the bottom (2a, 2b, 10) b) determining a minimum quantity of fat (9, 9a, 9b) necessary to cover the entire cooking surface (3a, 3b, 10a) of the bottom (2a, 2b, 10) deformed in this way at said predetermined cooking temperature, by pouring the minimum quantity of fat (9, 9a, 9b) necessary to cover the entire cooking surface (3a, 3b, 10a) or by calculating said minimum quantity of fat (9, 9a, 9b) necessary to cover the entire cooking surface (3a, 3b, 10a) by recreating the cooking utensil (11) deformed in this way by means of a computer equipped with a computer assisted design software program, said minimum quantity of fat (9, 9a, 9b) making it possible to define the performance index of the cooking utensil (1a, 1b, 11) for a predetermined cooking temperature.
Abstract:
A method of making cookware containing a bonded composite comprising the steps of providing at least two layers of materials by pressurizing and heating wherein the first of the at least two layers of materials has a plurality of spaced-apart bubbles formed on its surface, defining a cooking surface of the cookware, and a second layer of two layers of material is bonded thereto, wherein the bonding between the bubbles and the second material is of a lesser degree than the bonding between the first and second layers of materials in areas intermediate the bubbles, whereby a coefficient of heat conductivity is greater in the intermediate areas than in the bubbles. The method also includes providing a plurality of sets of bonding blank assemblies by solid state processing under pressure and heat.
Abstract:
Grill pan for cooking, where the functionality of a pan and a grill is found in one single product and which may come in different shapes and sizes and preferably has a solid flat surface with a number of holes distributed all over its surface and a wall on its circumference and on this surface, and it additionally has a handle or part for its handling.
Abstract:
A releasable connection between a pan and a handle comprises a bracket, which is provided with a hole and intended to project laterally from the body of the pan, and an engaging mechanism, which is intended to be arranged on the handle and which comprises an engaging tooth which is inserted into said hole and a cam element which is rotatable into a locked position for pushing with a first cam surface against a corresponding edge of the said hole so as to clamp a part of the bracket between the first said cam surface and a facing projecting part of the engaging mechanism. A strip allowing sliding of the cam and pressing against the edge of the hole is arranged between the said first cam surface and the corresponding edge of the hole. Advantageously the bracket may be made as one piece with an aluminum pan.
